When your mind is focused on negative possible outcomes, it is negative outcomes you tend to attract.
When you envision success it is succes your tend to attract.
Positiveness attracts positive experiences.
That's the essence of the law of attraction.
I agree! It is not the only element playing a role in manifesting the reality you want but it is one that plays a super important role.
If it is success you want, focus more on success.
